Why do we have countries? Why do we need countries?

Question

Why do we have countries? I mean, the government thinks that they own all this land. If we try to make an independent country from another country, that country tries to prevent it. Why do they think that we can do this? God gave us all this planet. No the US government or the UK or anyother country. It was given to all of us. So, why do we have and need countries?

Answer 2

If we didn't have separate countries we couldn't have separate governments and we would all be living like cavemen because there would be anarchy. Eventually someone would gain enough power and backing to take over a region by force and thereby create a country. Incidentally this is why communism doesn't work.

If you're thinking, "Well why can't we have a one world government?" It's because that would mean that:

1) There would be only one system of government so everyone would have to abide by the same rules. Not everyone likes a single style a government.

2) All the different religions, cultures and whatnot would have to be dealt with in the same system. Racial violence almost always occurs where different groups of people are most assimilated into the adopted country. Just look at n**i Germany and Bosnia in the 90's.

Answer 3

yes we need countries

Answer 4

People are easier to control and manipulate when they are divided. Many people feel their beliefs, culture and nationality are better than others, and a separation of the countries is probably keeping a lot of people safe, and protects their rights. Too many people believe different things to be able to come together as one. You sound as though you might be in favor of the NAU and NWO?
